Sometimes I think about making up a more clever name, and then I promptly don't. Interested in photography & art. Not interested in crypto, investments, politics, your tig ol' biddies, or general bigoted dipshittery. Photos are mine, except Reposts.

That is interesting. It does seem like it would be incredibly difficult to remove a vault.

Close-up of the inside perspective of a slice from the top of a pomegranate peel, with plant hairs creating a heart with the negative space of the hole. There is a blurry window and a broom stick propped against a wall in the background.

Whenever I come across a place like this, I often pause to think about the people who lived here ... who they were, their challenges, their joys, their tears. I try to think about the generations of people who passed through this door and who made this into a home. I try to think about what became of them. I try to listen for their voices, but all I hear is the wind. The photo depicts an abandoned homestead in eastern Colorado. The image is black and white and rendered into a sepia tone. The sky is mostly covered in patchy clouds. The two-story house has a partially caved-in roof. All of the windows have been removed. The image perspective is from low to the ground.
